Technology

   Our Crescent® GPS receivers have a established a new benchmark for performance, versatility and value. A variety of accuracy and feature options include Differential GPS (DGPS) accuracies of 60cm to our centimeter-level RTK solutions. Patented GPS features such as e-Dif® and COAST™ are also available. The same performance is available in our patented Crescent Vector™ products. They operate as a GPS compass, processing GPS data from two antennas to deliver accurate heading that is required for many machine guidance and control applications.
   Eclipse™ multi-GNSS technology delivers the highest level of performance and versatility with GPS and GLONASS support. Horizontal accuracies of one centimeter are possible through RTK or post-processed solutions. Eclipse technology provides the ability to track and process a wide range of GNSS signals including current and modernized GPS, GLONASS, SBAS and the future Galileo system signals.
   Our GNSS positioning and heading technology is coupled with other sensors to provide machine guidance and control solutions with our Celestia® Connecting Technology. Celestia is an advanced software platform patented by Hemisphere GPS that can be applied to a full spectrum of machine control applications. The technology interfaces seamlessly into a range of vehicle steering and control systems, providing unsurpassed reliability and accuracy in the machine control market.
